Using MIDI IN/OUT jacks
1.
Control an external device using the EL-700/500
●
Playing your Electone can cause the MIDI keyboard (or tone generator) to be played using its own voices,
accomplishing thick sound layers. (The MIDI receive channel of the MIDI keyboard must match the
transmit channel of your Electone.)
●
Various messages including the values how far the expression pedal is pressed down and how hard you
play the Electone keyboard can be transmitted as digital data. However, whether and how the external
device responds or not depends on the external device you have connected.
●
The performance on the EL-700/500 can be recorded onto your personal computer using a sequencing
software.
2.
Control the EL-700/500 using an external device
●
Playing the external MIDI keyboard can cause your Electone to be played using Electone’s voices. (The
MIDI transmit channel of the MIDI keyboard must match the receive channel of your Electone. The
channels 1, 2 and 3 for the Upper, Lower and pedal voices, respectively.)
●
EL-700/500 can be played as a rhythm machine by playing the external MIDI device. (The MIDI transmit
channel of the MIDI keyboard should be 15, in this case.)
●
EL-700/500 will work as an XG tone generator and play back the MIDI data transmitted from the personal
computer (a sequencing software).
See page 166 for the details to use the EL-700/500 as an XG tone
generator.
